A Big l leld of Grimm Alfalfa 
Alfalfa and Clovers 
The acreage seeded to Alfalfa in Michigan is increasing every year. 
All of our seed is northern grown, therefore, it is best adapted to our 
climate. 
fRIMM AI P AI FA was brought to the United States by a Mr. Grimm, 
tmllillil ALrALrA He settled in Minnesota, and the seed was sown and 
produced exceptionally hardy plants, and when it was eventually recog¬ 
nized as a superior strain, it became known as Grimm Alfalfa. From its 
adopted home it rapidly spread over the Northwest, and its superiority 
is now so generally proven that it is rapidly superseding the Common 
Alfalfa. We have never known a failure in Michigan of true Grimm. 
Our Grimm Alfalfa, which is scarified seed, is grown by reputable or¬ 
ganizations, and certified by the proper State officers in the state where 
grown, and guaranteed by them. Write for prices.

U J' Alf If Was developed in Michigan and has rapidly become one of the leading varieties because of its 
nardlgan Alialta hardiness and heavy yielding ability. For the past four years it has been the outstanding va¬ 
riety in comparative tests in trials at the Michigan Experimental Station at East Lansing. The only reason 
Hardigan Alfalfa has not been grown more extensively was the lack of a sufficient supply of seed, but we 
are sure anyone who plants it will not be disappointed with the results. Write for prices, 
w j. D i | pi By far the most important of all clovers for practical purposes. It is a perennial, 
Medium Ked or June Hover and grows about two feet high; very 
valuable for plowing under to enrich the soil, adding humus and 
nitrogen. Sow in spring or fall, eight to twelve pounds per acre, if 
used without other grasses. 
M .1 j n J n Mammoth Clover is quite distinct 
Mammoth or Large Ked Hover from medium, growing to nearly 
twice its size; is coarser and a little later. It can be grown success¬ 
fully on poorer soil than Medium Clover. It is used extensively for 
building up wornout land. Sow about eight to twelve pounds per 
acre when sown alone. 
• j «i pi A perennial and the most hardy of all clovers. It pre- 
nlSlKC Hover fers damp, loamy soil. It is extremely leafy, making 
hay of a fine texture. Does not readily winterkill, and is valuable to 
sow with other clovers and grasses, as it increases the yield of hay. 
It is the best clover for moist soil. Sow either in Spring or Fall, 
about six pounds per acre, when sown alone. 
nn •. ni Ci m Once considered a noxious weed; 
White Blossom owed Hover now nearly equal in value to alfalfa. 
White Sweet Clover is a biennial, and does not last so long as its 
cousin, alfalfa, but it has a great mission. In pasture it will pro¬ 
duce a greater flow of milk than even alfalfa, and as much feed. 
Cattle are less liable to bloat. Stock soon learn to like the hay, and 
even prefer it to alfalfa. Write for Drices.
